What is a Butler?

Butlers are a simple way to configure your devices so they can work on their own.
You can automate them to perform actions automatically based on different setups, such as activity, time.

For example: If motion is detected inside home during night time, you can set the lights to be turned automatically, or when the front door is unlocked at an specific time, lights automatically can be turned on.
Butlers are ready to be programed using your Webee TV App, soon to be available on your mobile device as well.

Follow these simple steps to set your Butlers:

1- On your Webee TV app, select Settings and then navigate to the Butler Section

2- Click to create a new Butler.

3- Name your Butler, then click Next.

4- Select the device that will trigger the action on other devices. For example, if Butler detects motion from your motion sensor your lights will turn on.

5- Configure which device attribute will work as a trigger. For example when motion sensor is Active. Click Ok to continue to next step.

6- Once the device is configured, click Next to set up date and time for your Butler to activate.
